Differences with Fedez: An Analysis
Get ready to witness the next social media rap battle between Guè and Fedez, set to air on Rai 2 on June 4. Guè, known for his no-nonsense approach, isn't holding back when it comes to his colleague Fedez, who's likely to respond to his former mentor's comments.
You might remember that Guè's label helped launch Fedez's career: "Although launchinghim was no mistake, it was one of many important things for our genre, Guè admitted. "But between us, we've never really agreed: Fedez operates in the opposite realm compared to me. He uses intelligence to stir gossip, do advertising, and other unrelated stuff to what I'm about."
When quizzed further by host Francesca Fagnani, Guè elaborated on the contrast between his and Fedez's musical styles: "If I see someone who constantly seeks attention by falling off their bike deliberately, I don't approve. Success should be earned, not pulled off via ill-gotten means like exploiting personal relationships or using your kids in the spotlight. I hustle hard."
Guè then spoke about his environment, often misrepresented as being toxic, but in truth, no more dubious than the mainstream music scene: "I know popular singers who are just as bad, if not worse, than us rappers when it comes to drug abuse."
It's not that Guè hasn't experienced vices himself: "I've dabbled in addictions, drugs, and criminal activities, but I don't endorse it for others. It's a screwed-up path that destroyed my life."
He didn't mince words when calling himself a good person: "If I wasn't, I wouldn't have taken one for the team so many times, right in the butt, from both ladies and buddies." And when Fagnani asked if his internet-famous masturbation moment was a belvata, he humorously replied: "Nah, but I was ahead of the curve."
Lastly, discussing the Sanremo Festival, Guè clarified the legendary gesture he made towards Geolier on stage during the event: "Contrary to popular belief on social media, it wasn't meant to help him or distract him from the boos; it was just a code among rappers."
Celebrities Guè and Fedez, known for their contrasting styles in music and pop-culture, are set to engage in a rap battle on Rai 2 on June 4. Guè, criticizing the use of attention-seeking tactics by his former mentee, expressed his disapproval of Fedez's entertainment strategy that involves stirring gossip and exploiting personal relationships.
